Gore & Associates was founded by Gore’s father, Bill, who had worked for DuPont prior to starting his business. Gore began contributing while he was still in college, making a suggestion that led to a breakthrough in the development of an insulated wire that he patented as Multi-Tet cable.

Gore joined the family business as a research associate after receiving his Ph.D. in chemical engineering. In 1969, he was working on a process for creating pipe thread tape when he accidentally created a fabric that was both porous and waterproof.

Roy Keane hammers Arsenal for "problem" despite coming out victorious at Watford

Roy Keane has picked out a "problem" with Arsenal during their win over Watford on Sunday despite Mikel Arteta's side moving into the top four of the Premier League with games in hand.The Gunners took all three points following classy goals from Martin Odegaard, Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli, taking them into fourth for the first time since January 1.Having said that, it wasn't the perfect performance from Arteta's men with Cucho Hernandez scoring a screamer and Moussa Sissoko ensuring it would be a nervy finish for the visitors.Keane has picked out that late goal as a reason for Arsenal fans to feel slightly concerned, especially in relation to how easily Ben White was beaten.Keane, who was on punditry duty for Sky Sports, said: "This is Arsenal, poor defending, White has to do better there and it’s a problem for them (Arsenal)."Speaking to BBC Sport, Arteta admitted that the opposition deserved credit, but now has eyes on securing their place in the top four.He said: "Credit to Watford, they are fighting for their lives. They changed their team and it is hard to beat them.Where will Arsenal finish in the Premier League this season? Give us your thoughts in the comments section"We are getting better and better, the understanding between the players is getting better and we should have scored more today."Before adding: "We are there now and we'll go game by game.

Rangnick revealed that he's already made his mind up about the vacancy, although he's not yet discussed it with the United hierarchy.He told Sky Sports: "So far we haven't at all spoken about that, nobody, not just [United football director] John Murtough but nobody else, we haven't had that topic in the last weeks and months since I'm here.
